Jane sputtered into her coffee, setting the cup down and putting a hand over her mouth so she didn\u2019t just spit it everywhere. Oh, she should\u2019ve seen that one coming. Most people didn\u2019t ask, so she didn\u2019t have to think about it, but Summer definitely wasn\u2019t most people.<\/p>\n

Once she had finally swallowed, she shrugged. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t be able to tell you, honestly,\u201d she said. \u201cWe haven\u2019t done too much more than kissing. I think he\u2019s afraid of offending me, and I\u2019m afraid of offending him.\u201d She chuckled and rolled her eyes. \u201cHe might also be afraid of hurting me. He squeezed me too hard when we were making out on the couch and I had bruises for a week and a half. He doesn\u2019t know about the bruises, but he knows it hurt.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer dropped the doughnut like it burned her and hit herself in the forehead. \u201cDon\u2019t you two even talk?\u201d she said, under the hand. \u201cGood grief, Jane. Look, I\u2019m not going to say this to hurt you, but seriously, I never thought of you as a coward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Summer dropped her hand and looked into Jane\u2019s eyes, her face very serious. \u201cYou\u2019re not doing yourself any favours being afraid. You say he\u2019s sincere and honest and wonderful, so hold on to that and be honest back to him.\u201d She leaned back in the chair, arms folded. \u201cYou\u2019re serious about him, right? Do it right from the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Jane raised an eyebrow. \u201cI am not<\/em> a coward,\u201d she said. \u201cWe talk all the time, but we talk about things that are a bit more pressing than sex. He\u2019s got enough to worry about without worrying about literally breaking me.\u201d She rolled her eyes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s more complicated than that, okay? And besides, I\u2019m not in any rush, and neither is he. It\u2019s not like we haven\u2019t done it just because we\u2019re both nervous. It feels\u2026 I don\u2019t know. It feels right taking things slow with him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer rolled her eyes right back. “I didn’t say jump right into bed. I said be honest. If you talk about everything, then let everything include why you think he might be offended. Or ask him why he thinks you might be offended.”<\/p>\n

“Jane, I’m really serious about this. I — you’re my friend, and I don’t want to see you hurt because the two of you fumbled around trying \/not\/ to hurt each other.” Summer looked away, at the city skyline, her mouth crimping. “I tried that. I won’t let what happened to me, happen to you. I just won’t.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
